Alleged Rapist 'Kolor Ijo' Arrested in East Java
"Kolor Ijo," a man who gained notoriety over the past decade as a brutal rapist and robber, has been arrested in the East Java town of Probolinggo after allegedly violating at least 31 women.
The name Kolor Ijo (Indonesian for "Green Underpants") has stirred fear among women in Probolinggo and its surrounding areas since the man allegedly began committing his actions in 2004. He has reportedly robbed dozens of houses and abducted their female occupants before raping and deserting them in paddy fields or outside the homes.
He reportedly always wore a green pair of underpants while committing the crimes. He successfully eluded law enforcers for 10 years until the Probolinggo Police finally arrested Buasir Nur Khotib, 50, in his house in Pohsangit Lot village in the subdistrict of Wonomerto on Thursday.
Buasir is believed to be the infamous Kolor Ijo, and he admitted to police investigators to having raped 31 women over the past 10 years.
"We suspect, though, that the number of victims is more than that," Probolinggo Police chief Adj. Sr. Comr. Iwan Setiawan told Indonesian news portal kompas.com on Thursday.
Buasir was arrested after a police officer disguised as a patient seeking Buasir's traditional healing methods managed to collect Buasir's finger prints from a bottle of water the alleged rapist had supposedly cast a charm on, Iwan said.
The finger prints, added Iwan, matches the one police collected from a prior rape case some time ago. Police did not mention exactly when the alleged rape took place.
Police also seized from Buasir a cell phone belonging to one of his victims along with other items such as a laptop, cash, a sickle, a black stone and an amulet.
Citing Buasir's testimonies, Iwan said the alleged thief and rapist performed black magic rituals to help him in his crimes, tribunnews.com reported.
After spying on his target home for two days, Buasir would supposedly toss charms and walk around the house to induce a soporific spell on the occupants and allow him to enter the locked house with ease.
"After performing the ritual, Kolor Ijo would steal items such as cell phones, money and laptops," Iwan said. "And then he would carry the woman outside and rape her in a paddy field or outside the house.'
"After raping her, the Green Underpants would desert the victim. He would put a stone on his body to prevent her cries from being heard by other people," Iwan added.
He said police were charging Buasir for rape and robbery. He is facing up to 12 years in prison.

"Jika Bapak Memang 'Kolor Ijo', Saya Minta Maaf"
PROBOLINGGO, KOMPAS.com — SA, anak sulung Buasir Nur Khotib (50) alias "Kolor Ijo", mengaku kaget ayahnya ditangkap polisi karena mencuri dan memerkosa puluhan perempuan. Dia tidak percaya ayahnya adalah Kolor Ijo yang telah meneror perempuan sejak tahun 2014.
"Saya dan keluarga tak percaya jika bapak Kolor Ijo. Kami kaget saat bapak ditangkap polisi. Dia memang pernah dipenjara dulu di Rutan Kraksaan karena melakukan pencurian, tapi sudah tobat," kata SA saat ditemui di rumahnya di Kecamatan Wonomerto, Kota Probolinggo.
"Tapi jika benar bapak memang Kolor Ijo, saya minta maaf kepada seluruh korban. Kalau keluar malam hari pamitnya syuting video," ujarnya tampak sedih.
Sebelumnya diberitakan, Buasir Nur Khotib mengaku telah memerkosa dan merampok 31 perempuan mulai gadis hingga ibu-ibu. Hal itu dilakukannya selama rentang waktu 10 tahun.
Pengakuan Buasir itu disampaikan Kapolresta AKBP Iwan Setiawan, Kamis. Namun, Iwan menyatakan tidak akan percaya begitu saja atas pengakuan Kolor Ijo. "Kami menduga jumlah korban bisa lebih dari pengakuan tersangka," katanya. Kepolisian, lanjut Iwan, masih terus mengembangkan kasus tersebut.
Kapolresta menambahkan, Kolor Ijo ditangkap setelah anggota polisi menyamar sebagai pasien. Setelah mencocokkan sidik jari yang menempel di botol air pemberian Buasir kepada anggota polisi tersebut, ternyata sidik jarinya cocok dengan yang ditemukan polisi dalam kasus pemerkosaan oleh Kolor Ijo beberapa waktu lalu.
Selain itu, polisi melacak pelaku setelah ponsel milik korban ternyata masih aktif dan dipegang Buasir. Saat itulah polisi melakukan penangkapan.
Kepolisian Resor Kota Probolinggo, Jawa Timur, menangkap Kolor Ijo bernama Buasir Nur Khotib (50), warga Desa Pohsangit Lor, Wonomerto, Kabupaten Probolinggo, di rumahnya, Kamis (30/1/2014).
Polisi menangkap Buasir yang telah meneror perempuan sejak 2004. Aksi Buasir ini telah berlangsung selama 10 tahun. Dalam melakukan aksinya, Kolor Ijo selalu mengenakan celana pendek berwarna hijau, lalu mencuri barang berharga milik korban dan memerkosa perempuan, baik gadis maupun janda.
Kapolresta AKBP Iwan Setiawan menjelaskan, sebelum melakukan aksinya, Kolor Ijo melakukan pengintaian rumah korban selama dua hari. Jika rumah korban dekat, dia naik sepeda. Jika jauh, dia menyewa ojek.
